What to expect at SeaQuest Las Vegas

SeaQuest Las Vegas is a break from Sin City’s attractions on the Strip and offers an opportunity to interact with wildlife and learn about the planet’s diverse inhabitants.

It takes you on an interactive quest through more than 30 themed exhibits where you’ll hand-feed birds in exotic aviaries, discover desert reptiles up close, touch sharks, interact with stingrays, and much more.

Besides the sea animals, visitors also engage with many land animals, such as birds, snakes, turtles, etc. 

For a small fee, visitors can enter the specialty exhibits and get a hands-on experience with different animals.

Best time to visit SeaQuest Vegas

The best time to visit SeaQuest Las Vegas is as soon as they open at 11 am.

Early in the morning, the animals are in their most active state, and the crowd is yet to come in.

We recommend weekdays for a peaceful visit because it gets crowded on weekends and school holidays.

Some experiences, such as ‘Meet the Mermaid’, are only available on weekends.

Since it is an indoor attraction, it gets crowded on bad weather days. 

Important: When you buy SeaQuest tickets online, you can skip the long lines and walk in.

However, as additional nutrition, they can nibble small eats offered by the visitors. 

Kids love this aspect of their SeaQuest experience, where they can feed the fish and animals.

To feed the animals, visitors need to purchase tokens. 

When you buy SeaQuest Las Vegas tickets, you can add ‘Feeding Tokens’ to your purchase.

These Seaquest feeding tokens can be used in many vending machines to buy snacks for certain animals throughout your experience. 

A staff member assists the visitors in sharing the snacks with the correct animals. 

The animal food is also available for purchase from the ticket office and the aquarium’s food counters.

Outdoor playground

Towards the end of all the animal exhibits, a door near the bird habitat leads to the outdoor playground. 

Once you step out, you spot an area to sit down and relax even as kids can play. 

Since there are enough tables, this is an excellent place to open up the food and drinks you have brought to the attraction and re-energize.
